Closed Coro365 closed 3 years ago

Coro365 commented 3 years ago

When I ran PiIR on a Raspberry Pi Model B Rev 2, piir record worked and generated exactly the same light.json as in README.md, but when I played it, the IR LED lit up, but I could not control the appliances. piir play -g 17 -f light.json off Does PiIR only work with pi zero as suggested in #1 ?

Thank you very much!

Does irrp.py work on your hardware? If it does, PiIR should work.

Sorry for the late reply. I tried PiiR and irrp.py with Pi1 and Pi3 respectively, but no improvement. So I bought a new RaspberryPi4 and inserted the SD card that I was using in the Pi3 and experimented with it, and was able to control the appliances. After that, I put the SD card back in the Pi3 and tested it again, but I couldn't control the appliances. I don't know why it doesn't work with Pi1 and Pi3 but works with Pi4, but thank you very much.
